Hatsan Escort 8 shot FAC.


Recommended Posts

I tried eating a fruit pastille while shooting but nearly choked on it. The reason I extended the mag' to an 8 shot is because of the many hundreds of crows that I'm going to tackle in a few months.

About three years ago, while using a flapper,decoys and Primos power crow caller, I shot a mix of 128 crows/jackdaws in about 2.5 hours. I used my Lanber O/U. If I had owned this shotgun then, the numbers would have almost doubled.

The Escort is going to be used purely for crows/pigeons.

 

I'd like to try it on clays, but the conditions imposed for its use, refrain me from using it.

Thats interesting, both my multishots are allowed for clays,issued by Kent Police.

 

Why not ask at next renewal, I enjoy the sideways glances when it becomes apparent Im not reloading :good:

Just looked at the clip again, noticed he,s not wearing any visible hearing protection.

Believe it or not, there is little added weight when loaded with the 8 cartridges. I found that it does not affect mounting the shotgun.

 

I did have hearing protection, I use very small sonic valves. I bought these many years ago.

 

 

I didnt realise that was actually you lol, I guessed there must be some sort of protection somewhere or it would be madness to subject your hearing to such a barrage, impressive though and a real adrenalin rush :good:
